The only avaliable options are a DVD Navigation system and a Premium bose stereo.

Leather interior, 6 speed, remote entry, power locks, windows, seays and pretty much everything else is standard.

Still way outta my price range and wait until the dealer mark-ups! The current Mach 1 is looking like the new king for domestic bang-for-the-buck; everytime I see one they look better. But back to the Goat, Pontiac could have put more traditional styling cues, but powertrain-wise it's bad-ass. Can't wait to see one in person.

thought the same thing. i own a 69, its my love, and seeing that the new one is just a rebadged holden kinda pisses me off. dont get me wrong its a bad ass car, faster and better handlling then the original(even though mine has more tourqe ). i realy want one i just wish they didnt use the gto name, but then it wouldnt be getting so much press with out it.

No worries its all just standard GM parts, almost everything exchanges between lines and from what I understand the Monaro is roughly based on the Gran Prix, Monte Carlo, Impala platform.
